Almost out
Thinking about selling the Jk. I need a daily driver and this ain't cuttin it.
I have a drag car so my jeep can't be my toy.:sad2: Probably go back to driving a p/u truck. The jeep has been to problamatic to keep as a DD and wheel. Not to mention the MPG's. Trust me, I am one of the last to gripe about fuel economy having own nothing but fullsize trucks and muscle cars. But 11-12 MPG's is redicoulus. FL. trails are to muddy and there is nothing really to to climb. I can't see mudding a brand new 25-30K vehicle and then having to spend 4 hours cleaning it only to get under it and see that it is still a wreck. Dirt and water=mud and the mud seepes into places, dries and becomes sandpaper:eek2: If this was a toy that I could take my time cleaning untill the next outing I wouldn't mind but when you have to drive it to work monday morning and you were just out sunday wheeling it kinda sucks. Maybe after this season I will sell the race car and purchase an older FSJ or a TJ to wheel. |
Man that sucks but i understand where you're coming from....I personally wouldn't seel my Jeep but I too use mine as a daily driver and man does it suck cleaning it after you spend a Sunday wheeling....Took me 5 hours yesterday and only so it can go into the shop....

In the end it's just a car. If you don't want, sell it. No biggie.
11-12 mpg?! I get 18!! But I drive like a grandma. |
I know what you mean about Florida trails....but still puts a smile on my face :D
but it will be sad to see another FL guy go. Best of luck! :thumbsup: |
to the OP how many miles do you have? I found when I got my 08 I was only getting 10 to 12mpg until I put more miles on it. once I broke 3k mi my mileage kept going up till about 19mpg, somedays I would hit 23mpg.

I have to agree about the gas mileage. After I went on a couple long hauls and past 6k miles my MPG has shot up to almost 19. This is a sahara with 32's 373 gears, and I drive the highway at 75 all day long.

I wouldnt sell it, but thats me! I dont plan to mud it, but I may go trailriding, and this is the perfect vehicle for it!
|
11-12 is low. I get 15-18. city or highway. doesn't matter.
